3.8.2 Extended Register Access

To read and write registers in extended register space, refer to the following procedure:

Write procedure for MMD "1F" registers:

write reg<000D> = 0x001F

write reg<000E> = <address>

write reg<000D> = 0x401F

write reg<000E> = <value>

Read procedure for MMD "1F" registers:

write reg<000D> = 0x001F

write reg<000E> = <address>

write reg<000D> = 0x401F

read reg<000E>

Note:
  • To read or write MMD "1" registers, replace 1F with 01.
  • Above write and read procedure is normally used for registers with address greater than 0x001F. But the procedure can also be used for any address in general.
